I don't disagree with your overall point - but the concept of "due process" isn't only limited to criminal law violations.

For example, immigration (the legal kind) is one area where a person is entitled to due process even though they haven't been charged with a crime.
No.  Immigration and entering the country is the sole purview of the Executive Branch, headed by POTUS.  He can let everyone in, let no one in, let some in and keep others out, as he sees fit.  While the general framework is based on legislation from Congress, how, or even IF, it is executed is entirely up to the President, under the Constitution.

"The exclusion of aliens is a fundamental act of sovereignty … inherent in the executive power," Supreme Court 1950.

Congress adopted a provision in 1952 saying the president "may by proclamation and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens and any class of aliens as immigrants or non-immigrants" whenever he thinks it "would be detrimental to the interests of the United States."

Huge.  She used her position as an "investigative reporter" for CBS to pimp fake news. For example (in 2011):

"For all those who’ve declared the autism-vaccine debate over – a new scientific review begs to differ. It considers a host of peer-reviewed, published theories that show possible connections between vaccines and autism."

She was at it as late as 2014, if not longer.  May be at it today.  I don't know.  Her credibility dropped to basically zero, so she has faded from the spotlight.

Inspectors General are handled differently than normal political PAS positions.  IGs routinely come from within the career IG community, and serve past presidential terms.  In this case, IG Horowitz was appointed by Obama, but has continued in his position through the Trump administration.  He was also previously appointed to a PAS position under Bush 43.  Calling him "Obama's folks" is silly - and we're ignoring the fact that the actual report would have been done by a GS-13 and approved by his/her ASAC / SAC before release.

The various offices of IG's should not be the Presidents people.

The reality is that once a President is in office a few years the upper level bureaucrats his administration put in place are of his ilk! And the people they hire are then like them. So after a few years we end up with a lot of folks that are not objective. The kind of people that abuse the power of all governmental agencies fro their own political purposes, examples are very clear with Lois Lerner's at the IRS, the DOJ IG finding no bias at the FBI, etc.. This seems to be much more extreme with the Obama administration than previously, but it is always the case!

There are existing rules:

The code of federal regulations that now guides the White House press pass process states that "In granting or denying a request for a security clearance made in response to an application for a White House press pass, officials of the Secret Service will be guided solely by the principle of whether the applicant presents a potential source of physical danger to the President and/or the family of the President so serious as to justify his or her exclusion from White House press privileges."

The White House never claimed Acosta was a security threat.

Okay, this is a textbook example of the corruption of the judiciary.

I can go along with the court's findings except the last one.  There is no irreparable harm to CNN or Acosta.  Irreparable harm was intended to refer to something which truly cannot be replaced or restored by money, such as the destruction of a historical monument or building.

Courts have watered down the concept of irreparable injury or harm to the point where it has become meaningless.  Without that requirement, courts can do this activist nonsense like they've done here, and did in the other "injunction" cases.

It's really time for an appeals court to smack them down and return to the requirement of irreparable injury to put an end to all this "Hawaiian Judge" crap.

For starters Judge Kelly said that The White House was within its rights to ignore Acosta from here on in, to never call on him and to grant him no interviews if it wants to.

In other words Acosta would be nothing more than a spectator.

"I want to emphasize the very limited nature of this ruling," Judge Kelly said, The Hill reported.

It is limited because the decision is only temporary. Judge Kelly did not rule whether or not Acosta's First and Fifth Amendment rights were violated

The 1977 case actually helps set up a standard for the time that was reasonable. Up until then there was no release of info by the SS as to why people were denied their 1a rights. How you don't see that as a problem is mind boggling. I suspect it has something to do with the fact that you either didn't read the relevant parts of the case or don't understand the implications of it.

Let me put it this way. If Hillary had won and she revoked all the press passes of all Conservative news organizations, as you are suggesting Trump should do to Acosta, would you be upset with that and complaining?

The case law might not be the best, not may things are nowadays, but up until this point it hasn't been an issue. Trump now has the opportunity to appeal case law and take the to the SCOTUS to have it changed. Why is that a bad thing? Why should he not have to follow case law?
Did he revoke Acosta's pass, or CNNs pass? If CNN can still send another reporter who is not Acosta to the press conferences, where are the damages?

This is the stupidest fucking thing I think that's happened to Trump so far.
From the 1977 case law:

With respect to its requirement of notice and opportunity to rebut, the Court relied on its determination that denial of a White House press pass constitutes a deprivation of "liberty" without due process of law within the meaning of the fifth amendment because it interferes with the free exercise of the profession of journalism.
That is one of the reasons why Acosta could file and challenge.
Where does it state he has a right to disrupt  and harrass, or refuse to return government owned property?
